The park expert incidentally en-thusiastically boosted the plan of in-corporating at least $.">.000 in the citybudget for 1917 to provide for theinitial structure.

The item of $5,000 has been incor-porated in the park departmental es-timates for the coming year.

"While I know very iittle about thedetails, I can add my heartiest wordof endorsement to the plan," declaredMr. Manning to-day. "1 will say this:I don't think these bathhouses or bath-ing beaches should be located alongthe river wall, but the suggestion tobuild a house and beach along theisland shores impresses me as beingjust the ideal thing to do."

Mr. Manning spent the greater partof the day with the Planning Commis-sion in inspecting the proposed re-arrangement of streets and the de-velopment plan for the section ofcountry north of Division street.

Mr. Manning, with President E. S.Herman, of the Planning Commission:F. Clark Cowden. the commission'sengineer, and V. Grant Forrer. assist-ant park superintendent, visited River-side and the section of country northof it.

Mr. Cowden had compiled data anddrawings showing the proposedchanges and these will be carefullystudied by Mr. Manning and the Plan-ning Commission before final adoptionof that section of the city's three-mileplanning limit. At a meeting thisafternoon of the entire commissionthis problem was again threshed out.The park expert to-day endorsedthe ideas advanced vesterda- by A. W.Brunner, the New York expert, who.with Mr. Manning, has been selectedby the State to map out the proposedCapitol Park extension.
